[Twisted-Python] latest release & solaris

Hi

just a couple of notes of about the latest release

1) the tarball (gz) for unix seems to have some funny
permissions/symlinks/umask? in it. This barfed using solaris tar, with
an error about not being able to create the file, so
I downloaded the windows version and unzipped that instead, and chmod
-R to something sensible. 

2) the C extension module cBanana.c actually has some C++ style
comments in it. I think this is fine for gcc, but solaris' cc
compiler is less forgiving. I just edited the file. 

other than those two gotchas, it seems to work.

thanks

Jon
